4-star WR Drae Bowles from Jackson and 3-star LB Justin King from Dunwoody GA. King could play Safety or LB at the college level. Per VQ and multiple Twitter sources.

Doubled our tally in one fell swoop...  

Seriously, though...those are two nice gets. Especially Bowles. We're really stocking up on WRs. It's like the late '80s all over again.

We just need to get some bona fide DL in this next class and we should be set to make a real push towards contention again.

Also technically King is rated as an ATH not a LB.

Tackles and LB's. If we get that, all our guys will need is experience then.

2012 may be the year we get back into contention for the East but 2013 will be the year we should have a fully stocked cupboard that doesn't have to include true freshmen.  

We will have a beast of o-line by then. Guys averaging 320+ across the front and 2 deep. People are lamenting the stars and lack of early committments but I am excited about the direction of the program and am very excited to see what happens this year. If our QB play is better like we hope and the DL does better then I think we will surprise this year. Not 10 wins surprise but going .500 in conference and maybe steal a game.

If our offense is better like we hope it will be, it will help our defense tremendously!

That's positive. I think the season will be a strong selling point.
